| - I have to say after reading all the rave reviews I had high expectations going in and was a bit disappointed. Express deli is a little place not far from the airport, inside you find a long store with the deli counter at the back. The menu is straightforward, being a pescetarian, I had limited choices; in two visits I had the tuna wrap and a falafel wrap. Service was friendly and fast.
The tuna wrap was a nice portion with cheese and vegies; decent but I found the tuna salad to be a bit watery, they needed to drain the tuna better. The sandwich wasn't bad, but I would not order it again.
The falafel was better then the tuna, a nice wrap with tuna and hummus instead of tahini. I do need to nitpick that the falafel balls were reheated in the microwave, which meant that the balls weren't as crisp as they could have been if they were fried fresh to order. I also would have liked some tahini for the wrap as well. Overall a good falafel, but not in my top 5 in Cleveland area.
I had heard that they offer new guests a 3 mini sandwich sampler; they did offer to do this for me, but when I explained that I didn't eat meat they said that they usually do it with meat. They could have offered me some of the vegetarian options, but they did not.
If I ate meat I may have had a much better experience, but if you are looking for tuna or vegetarian options, they are available, but not exceptional.
